8BitDo’s latest Switch 2-compatible all-button arcade controller just hit a new $57 all-time low

Update: This 8BitDo all-button arcade controller is now going for even less at $57.25 shipped. This is the lowest price we have tracked for it, and you can learn more about it in the original post below.

We are now tracking a deal at Amazon that drops one of 8BitDo’s all-button arcade controllers down to $63.61 $57.25 shipped. This particular model hit the scene last year in May carrying a $90 price tag, and it has only seen a few discounts dropping it down to the $77 mark. It dropped to $71 on the first day of the year, but today’s deal shaves an additional $7 off to mark a new best price to beat. This is the lowest price we have tracked for this all-button arcade controller, and it’s now fetching $36 less than the officially licensed Xbox variant of this model that’s going for $100. Head below for more details.

Unlike 8BitDo’s long-standing arcade controller, this one adopts a fully button-based layout, offering up to 16 keys, four of which are programmable with quick mapping. It features a low-profile design that keeps the controller slim and compact, along with matching mechanical switches mounted on a hot-swappable PCB. The standard version supports Nintendo Switch 2 and Windows, while the officially licensed all-black edition is designed for Xbox consoles and PC. Other highlights include SOCD cleaning, a tournament lock function, tri-mode connectivity, a space-saving form factor, and more.

8BitDo, by the way, announced a couple of new gamepads at CES 2026, which you might want to check out while you’re here. These include the Ultimate 3E, a pro-grade controller, and the FlipPad, a flip-style gamepad designed for smartphones.

8BitDo Switch 2-compatible all-button arcade controller features:

  • Compatible with Switch/Switch 2 and Windows. 3 connection modes – Connect to Switch via Bluetooth, to Windows via 2.4G, or to either device via wired. (Switch 2 compatibility requires latest firmware update)
  • Leverless. Ultimate Precision – Features an all-button arcade layout with quad-movement design for unmatched accuracy and ultra-fast inputs. Execute combos with greater speed and control.
  • Ultra Thin and Compact – Nearly the size of an A4 sheet and as thin as 1.6 cm. Fight anytime, anywhere.
  • Hot-swappable PCB – Features 16 Kailh Wizard low-profile mechanical switches, allowing you to customize with other switches that fit your needs.
  • Programmable and Practical – Remap P1, P2, P3, and P4 with fast mapping. Includes replaceable lock caps and independent control panel.
